92 Honey

Tucked up a steep wooden staircase on Golden Gai's Maneki-dori, 92 Honey (Kunimitsu) is a compact second-floor bar whose standout feature is its focus on local sake from Yamaguchi Prefecture — a rarity in the Tokyo bar scene. The bar participates every year in the neighborhood's Sakura Festival and Noryosai Summer Festival, giving it a genuine sense of belonging to the street's rhythm. The close quarters make it easy to fall into conversation with the person next to you over a glass of Yamaguchi brew — making it a good fit for solo visitors who enjoy spontaneous encounters. Note that up-to-date SNS information could not be confirmed at the time of writing, so it's worth checking current hours before you visit. If it's caught your interest, climb those stairs on Maneki-dori and see for yourself.
